Todays main stream media article has finally caught on on how Turkey is using the refugee crisis to negotiate with NATO member countries for the survival of Erdogan’s political party.

  1. EU states have struck a deal with Turkey to try and tackle migrant crisis
  2. Includes prospect of easier access to travel visas for 78 million Turks
  3. Deal includes possible €3bn in aid and renewed talks over it joining EU
  4. The aim of the measures is to encourage refugees to stay in the country
